Just right, it's a ****ing joke.
Pretending they're no ****ing it by issuing a very very very very brave statement.
"Oh well, we tried!"
Following security concerns raised by the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), Celtic has taken part in discussions with Linfield and the PSNI over recent days. While there can be an option to reverse the fixtures if both clubs agree, during discussions, Linfield made it clear that they did not wish to reverse the tie and they wanted play their home leg first. In addition, as is often the case in football, Celtic’s football management team wished to play our away leg first so that we could benefit from the advantage of playing the second leg at home in front of our supporters at Celtic Park for this crucial European tie.
Following the discussions, it was agreed among the clubs and PSNI and has now been confirmed with UEFA that, should Linfield progress to the Second Qualifying Round, Celtic’s UEFA Champions League match against Linfield will take place at Windsor Park on Friday, July 14, with a 5pm kick-off. No tickets will be available for Celtic supporters for the match. The safety and security of all Celtic supporters travelling and attending matches is of paramount importance to the Club.
UEFA Safety & Security regulations Article 24 Section One: “When security reasons render it inadvisable for supporters to travel to an away match, the match organiser and participating associations or clubs must do everything possible to prevent supporters from travelling.”
If the PSNI cannot guarantee the fans' safety what were Celtic supposed to do, rolll the dice, take the tickets and just hope there's no trouble?

Where has the PSNI said they can't guarantee the safety, Dev?
